Abstract

To configure a pad so as to be gentle to the skin, to prevent stretching and/or tearing of the front surface sheet, and to not reduce liquid permeability and air permeability. [Solution] An underarm sweat pad in which an absorbent is interposed between a front surface sheet and a back surface sheet and which is used folded in two at a folding line and attached to the inside of the axillary portion of a garment. The front surface sheet is composed of a hydrophilic cellulose fiber. Adhesive regions, in which an adhesive for bonding the front surface sheet to the absorbent is applied, are formed as stripes that are parallel to the folding line and are spaced at intervals in the direction that is orthogonal to the folding line.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
The invention claimed is: 
     
       1. An underarm sweat pad comprising:
 an absorbent body being interposed between a liquid-permeable front surface sheet and a liquid-impermeable back surface sheet, the underarm sweat pad configured to be attached to an inner side of an axillary portion of a garment and used while being bent in two parts at a folding axis,
 wherein the front surface sheet is made of a hydrophilic cellulosic fiber, and 
 a plurality of adhesive regions in which an adhesive for bonding the front surface sheet to the absorbent body is formed as stripes that are parallel to the folding axis and are spaced at intervals in a direction orthogonal to the folding axis, and a plurality of debossed grooves recessed towards the back surface sheet is formed on an exterior surface of the front surface sheet, along a direction in which the adhesive regions extend, each debossed groove of the plurality of debossed grooves being contained entirely within, with respect to the direction orthogonal to the folding axis, each adhesive region of the plurality of adhesive regions. 
 
 
     
     
       2. The underarm sweat pad according to  claim 1 , wherein an adhesive region of the plurality of adhesive regions is formed along the folding axis at a position overlapping the folding axis, and other adhesive regions of the plurality of adhesive regions are formed to be parallel to the folding axis at intervals using the folding axis as a reference line in each of regions on both sides of the folding axis. 
     
     
       3. The underarm sweat pad according to  claim 2 , wherein a width of an adhesive region of the plurality of adhesive regions is formed to be 2 to 5 times a groove width of a debossed groove of the plurality of debossed grooves, the debossed groove overlapping the adhesive region. 
     
     
       4. The underarm sweat pad according to  claim 2 , wherein an interval between adjacent adhesive regions of the plurality of adhesive regions is 0.8 to 1.5 times the width of an adhesive region of the plurality of adhesive regions. 
     
     
       5. The underarm sweat pad according to  claim 2 , wherein one or more additional debossed grooves are formed in a linear shape along the folding axis at a position of the folding axis. 
     
     
       6. The underarm sweat pad according to  claim 2 , wherein the debossed grooves formed in adhesive regions of the plurality of adhesive regions that are located on both sides of the folding axis are formed in a straight line shape or a wavy shape in which concaves and convexes are repeated within a width of an adhesive region of the plurality of adhesive regions. 
     
     
       7. The underarm sweat pad according to  claim 2 , wherein the debossed grooves extend in a direction substantially coinciding with a fiber orientation direction of the front surface sheet. 
     
     
       8. The underarm sweat pad according to  claim 1 , wherein a width of an adhesive region of the plurality of adhesive regions is formed to be 2 to 5 times a groove width of a debossed groove of the plurality of debossed grooves, the debossed groove overlapping the adhesive region. 
     
     
       9. The underarm sweat pad according to  claim 8 , wherein an interval between adjacent adhesive regions of the plurality of adhesive regions is 0.8 to 1.5 times the width of an adhesive region of the plurality of adhesive regions. 
     
     
       10. The underarm sweat pad according to  claim 8 , wherein one or more additional debossed grooves are formed in a linear shape along the folding axis at a position of the folding axis. 
     
     
       11. The underarm sweat pad according to  claim 8 , wherein the debossed grooves formed in adhesive regions of the plurality of adhesive regions that are located on both sides of the folding axis are formed in a straight line shape or a wavy shape in which concaves and convexes are repeated within a width of an adhesive region of the plurality of adhesive regions. 
     
     
       12. The underarm sweat pad according to  claim 1 , wherein an interval between adjacent adhesive regions of the plurality of adhesive regions is 0.8 to 1.5 times the width of an adhesive region of the plurality of adhesive regions. 
     
     
       13. The underarm sweat pad according to  claim 12 , wherein one or more additional debossed grooves are formed in a linear shape along the folding axis at a position of the folding axis. 
     
     
       14. The underarm sweat pad according to  claim 12 , wherein the debossed grooves formed in adhesive regions of the plurality of adhesive regions that are located on both sides of the folding axis are formed in a straight line shape or a wavy shape in which concaves and convexes are repeated within a width of an adhesive region of the plurality of adhesive regions. 
     
     
       15. The underarm sweat pad according to  claim 1 , wherein one or more additional debossed grooves are formed in a linear shape along the folding axis at a position of the folding axis. 
     
     
       16. The underarm sweat pad according to  claim 15 , wherein the debossed grooves formed in adhesive regions of the plurality of adhesive regions that are located on both sides of the folding axis are formed in a straight line shape or a wavy shape in which concaves and convexes are repeated within a width of an adhesive region of the plurality of adhesive regions. 
     
     
       17. The underarm sweat pad according to  claim 1 , wherein the debossed grooves formed in adhesive regions of the plurality of adhesive regions that are located on both sides of the folding axis are formed in a straight line shape or a wavy shape in which concaves and convexes are repeated within a width of an adhesive region of the plurality of adhesive regions. 
     
     
       18. The underarm sweat pad according to  claim 1 , wherein the debossed grooves extend in a direction substantially coinciding with a fiber orientation direction of the front surface sheet. 
     
     
       19. The underarm sweat pad according to  claim 1 , wherein the adhesive is not applied to a region other than the adhesive regions, or is applied to the region other than the adhesive regions with a lower basis weight than a basis weight of the adhesive applied to the adhesive regions. 
     
     
       20. The underarm sweat pad according to  claim 19 , wherein the basis weight of the adhesive applied to the region other than the adhesive regions is 0 to 0.5 times the basis weight of the adhesive applied to the adhesive regions.
